How do I joint silver wire and silver precious metal clay in jewelry making? - precious metal coins
I am new to jewelry making and trying to create a chain that is mainly from 18 gauge dead soft silver wire. I would like to add some other pieces of hearts and flowers and little thought of the precious metal clay, the easiest way to shaping the political parties. I will use a butane torch to solder the pieces of thread, but I'll pieces of clay, once fired? I need to solder or flux?

I do not know the answer to this, of course, but after she cleaned and cured, the precious metal clay (and Art Clay Silver) are made of pure silver. So I think I could any of you would normally for that use. There may be some differences, but with different versions of PMC, etc., though?
If you do not get a good answer here, you should be one of the PMC sites (or Art Clay) and / or ask on the forums.

After PMC is triggered, the 99.9% silver. Everything that can the metal which can be fired in PMC - make sawing, filing, hammering and welding. You can also click on the silver wire into the ground and fire it all together. (If you happen to Sterling and his son after cooking fire scale in vinegar.) PMC can be welded, but remember that there are more porous than metal and absorb some of the solder. And, yes, you must use the river resources.
If you are welding of pure silver, pure silver, which work well. Remember to be careful, because with a flashlight - the PMC can melt and evaporate, if you hold the torch too long or too hot. (Make sure that the safety vent - silver are toxic fumes)
The other option is to (the PMC to be addressed directly to the ring to find money or other) embedded in the clay. I had good results with it, using the results of fine silver. From my silver paste in the oven.
When the fire of PCM with the results that the results were the same things that need to be cleaned (not really a problem)
You can also jump out of the ring-tone silver coin more money and reach your room with sliding door. Then, when it leaves the furnace, reconnect the cable as usual.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
I use heated tone, because there is less shrinkage. If you are the original or PCM II, the contraction is greater and may, as it would affect dismissal discovery Embedded
If the stimuli are small enouGH, just put a hole in the top of the charm, fire, and add a jump ring. Solder the closed ring.
Hope this helps.
